I guess I need to explain further. The Army is very good to me and is really giving me some great care. I am a Senior NCO and I make a very good living. On top of that, I draw separate rations pay to cover my meals. The Army provides me with a nice clean place to live. Please don't think I'm destitute.

I have Lupus which has affected my face and arms in addition to other things. I have become very sensitive about my appearance, so I don't go to restaurants to eat. I buy food on post where I feel more accepted.

The Army is doing there very best to stabilize my medical problems in order to retain me. If I am able to deploy again, it will delay me having to return to the civilian world till 2010 where I will have to get a job and find a place to live.

I'm sorry I turned this thread into such a bummer. I didn't mean to. Let's get back on track talking about some good food. BTW, don't ever try that nacho recipe I described earlier. "It weren't a pretty sight" about 2 hours later:p
